Combatting Stress and Anxiety with Time in Nature

Time spent in nature nurtures our wellbeing. Dr. Tamara Yakaboski – whose work focuses on helping teams and individuals build cultures of care for greater wellbeing -- shares how we can build this connection in our own life. Her work is centered on what she calls embodied action – using mind-body-spirit practices to build community and resiliency in the face of climate change. That might mean walking barefoot on ground, listening to the sounds of birds, and other practices that bring us back into connection with the outdoors and our own living experiences. In this episode, she shares how we can use these practices to lower stress and combat climate anxiety. And how this can lead us to find a sense of connection to others and hope for the future.
